368 wards under five Greater Bengaluru Authority corporations
BENGALURU: The Karnataka government on Wednesday published the final notification on ward delimitation, formally recognising 368 wards for Bengalurus city administration under the Greater Bengaluru Authority, to be governed by five city corporations. A draft notification issued on September 29 had proposed the same number of wards across the five corporations, 63 in Bengaluru Central, 72 in Bengaluru North, 50 in Bengaluru East, 111 in Bengaluru West, and 72 in Bengaluru South, and invited objections and suggestions. The Urban Development Department received 4,892 objections and suggestions, all of which were examined by the Wards Delimitation Commission. The final notification states that ward numbering within each Assembly constituency follows the serpentine or boustrophedon system, which will be continued in subsequent constituencies as well. Several ward names have been changed, and certain boundary lines have been revised to mark roads as ward limits clearly. The government has now cleared a major hurdle for conducting the long-pending municipal elections, overdue since September 10, 2020. Officials noted that with Bengalurus population expanding rapidly from 84 lakh in 2011 to an estimated 144 lakh in 2025 , the delimitation exercise was essential for effective administration. Following the final notification, the government has also completed the ward-wise reservation list as of November 30. 4,892 Objections & Suggestions recorded Bengaluru North City Corporation 693 Bengaluru South City Corporation 420 Bengaluru West City Corporation 2,965 Bengaluru East City Corporation 413 Bengaluru Central City Corporation 401

Make Bengaluru plastic-free by 2030, says CM Siddaramaiah
BENGALURU: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah revealed that Bengaluru manufactures 900 tonnes of plastic daily, and called on all stakeholders and the public to make Bengaluru plastic-free by 2030. People should become aware of the ill-effects of plastic, or it will not be possible to turn Bengaluru into a plastic-free city. The city can become plastic-free by 2030 only by creating awareness about the environment and joining hands with the government, he stated. He made the remarks after inaugurating the golden jubilee celebrations of the Karnataka State Pollution Control Board at Palace Grounds on Wednesday. He appealed to Bengalureans to segregate dry and wet waste, before handing it over to the municipality. CM announced a Rs 1 crore endowment fund in memory of green activist Salumarada Thimmakka, and said an environment-related programme should be held and five environmentalists honoured in Thimmakkas memory. Forest, Environment and Ecology Minister B Eshwar Khandre said an attempt should be made to make at least 50 wards of Bengaluru plastic-free this year. KSPCB Chairman PM Narendraswamy said in most districts, sewage treatment plants are not functional, and sewage is entering water bodies. He appealed to the CM to instruct all district administrations and local bodies to prevent this. The board has decided to increase the number of river water measurement stations to prevent water pollution. In Dakshina Kannada district, roads are constructed from waste. I appeal for recycling of waste in all districts, said the chairman. Later, the CM, DCM DK Shivakumar and Khandre felicitated 10 persons with the Indira Priyadarshini Environmental Award for their work in pollution control.
Karnataka HC delivers divergent verdict on pleas of medical students
BENGALURU: The High Court of Karnataka has delivered a divergent verdict on petitions filed by medical students questioning the procedure adopted by the Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) in not allowing them to claim vacant seats in other colleges by exiting seats in the present college even though they have better ranks than those who have been provisionally allotted seats in the third round. A division bench of Justice Jayant Banerji and Justice KV Aravind delivered this verdict. Justice Banerji disposed of the petitions filed by Chandana M Chavan and others and set aside the third round of provisional seat allotment list of candidates released on October 24. Justice Banerji directed KEA to conduct the third round of counselling afresh, strictly as per the directions of the apex court in the case of Bhavna Tiwari. Justice Banerji also directed KEA to conclude the two stages of the third round of counselling and declare the final seat allotment list by December 2. However, Justice Aravind dismissed the petitions with a direction to KEA to complete the third round or mop-up round expeditiously in accordance with law. KEA should complete the counselling process of all permissible rounds with an outer limit on or before December 10, he said. Now, the matter will have to be heard by a third judge.
At 8.5%, Bengaluru to grow far faster than Mumbai, Delhi
BENGALURU: The Bengaluru Innovation Report, released by IT-BT Minister Priyank Kharge on Wednesday, says Bengaluru is set to grow annually at 8.5% till 2035, far ahead that of Mumbai (6.6%) and Delhi (6.5%). Bengaluru hosts 40% of Indias Global Capability Centres (GCCs), the highest in the country, and it is projected to double by 2029. The report highlights why global tech giants are choosing Bengaluru to become the AI-Quantum Computing hotspot of India. As per the report there is a corporate cost advantage because the median annual salary of a software professional in Bengaluru was $12,000, which is substantially lower than its international peers. The cost of office space rent in Bengaluru is one third of that in Beijing. Additionally, 48% of the GCC talent pool in Bengaluru is engaged in high-end rolesengineering, research and development. Also the city has the most affordable housing and is the cheapest among leading global startup ecosystems in terms of cost of living. The report states that Bengaluru is Indias tech talent engine as it is the tech and human capital centre of the nation. The report says that women-led startups have prospered in Bengaluru-- the total capital raised by them in Bengaluru stood at $ 13.4 billion, the highest among all cities in India. Bengaluru is now the worlds fifth-largest unicorn hub. Of the 122 unicorns in India cumulatively valued at $ 353 billion, a total of 53 unicorns (startups valued at $ 1 billion) are from the city. Their combined valuation is estimated at Rs 1.70 lakh crore ($192 billion). Bengaluru-based unicorns contribute 42% of Indias total unicorn valuation. Bengaluru is also attracting soonicorns startups on the path to becoming unicorns like a magnet. The city is home to 39 soonicorns, ahead of Delhi-NCR (30) and Mumbai (21), reflecting Bengalurus dominance in nurturing world-class tech talent. GBA CHIEF OUTLINES CITYS NEW GOVERNANCE MODEL Bengaluru: At an interactive session during the Bengaluru Tech Summit, Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA) Chief Commissioner Maheshwar Rao joined Venk Krishnan, Founder & CEO of NuVentures, for an interaction on the citys governance, traffic challenges and future liveability. Krishnan acknowledged the citys remarkable global pull despite its infrastructure strain. People from all over the world want to move herefor the ecosystem, the warmth of the people, and the weather, he said, adding that even unicorn founders frustrated with traffic rarely relocate outside Bengaluru. Rao outlined the new administrative structure, created to make governance more agile. Bengaluru, earlier managed by a single municipal corporation, now has five corporations supported by the GBA, chaired by the Chief Minister. Coordination was our biggest gaproads repaired one day would be dug up the next. The GBA ensures all civic agencies work in harmony, he said. Addressing congestion, Rao said Bengaluru has 1.2 crore registered vehicles, with thousands added daily, making expanded public transport the citys best strategy. Indra S INFOSYS NAMED IT RATNA OF KARNATAKA Bengaluru: Karnatakas leadership in the IT and IT-enabled services (IT/ITES) sector was reaffirmed with the announcement of the Software Technology Parks of India (STPI) IT Export Awards for FY 2024-25.

Ghosh is the technical committee head of the Quantum Summit. IISc is helping the state government in implementing the project. The first Quantum Research Park was set up in IISc in 2022. He said the Quantum City is being set up emulating the one in Switzerland as well as including best practices from other countries. Science and Technology Minister NS Boseraju held a Quantum Technology Round Table discussion with industry experts, stakeholders and IT-BT Minister Priyank Kharge ahead of the release of the landscape plan.

Murder of a merchant without a past
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Long before police pieced together the lies he lived and died for, Harihara Varma built a life like a man who knew how to stay just outside the reach of questions. He sold gemstones whose origins he never fully explained, claimed ancestral links he never proved and told stories so confidently that even seasoned buyers found themselves leaning in. It was these tales that drew a group of young men into his orbit, ultimately paving way for his demise. What happened on December 24, 2012, was a murder wrapped inside a scam. Varma walked into what he believed was a business deal with buyers from Karnataka who posed as high-profile men looking to acquire rare and precious stones. In truth, everything about that meeting was scripted, a trap the gang spent seven months constructing. They used SIM cards acquired using fake Aadhaar cards. They created a fictitious persona the son of a Karnataka minister to make the deal look grander. A lawyer, the sixth accused, was the middleman. The meeting place was the lawyers daughters locked house in Vattiyoorkavu. The police would later say the planning was almost immaculate. But as retired Intelligence Range SP R Prathapan Nair, who was part of the Special Investigation Team, puts it, No matter how meticulous, there will always be a lead. Harihara Varma In this case, the lead was a phone number the killers thought they had erased. All their devices were destroyed after the murder, every SIM discarded. But one phone number they had used to contact Varma, eight months earlier, resurfaced under the Vattiyoorkavu mobile tower on the very day the murder took place. It was enough. Once police pulled that thread, the rest of the conspiracy was solved. The gangs plan was not to kill him but to sedate him, take the stones and disappear. When negotiations failed and Varma refused to finalise the deal, they tried sedatives and then chloroform. The dosage went wrong, and the robbery turned into homicide. But the real mystery of the case was not the murder. It was the man at the centre of it. Police soon realised that very little about Harihara Varma was real. His tales of a Poonjar ancestral lineage and inherited jewels were fabrications. His documents raised more questions than answers. To this day, officers believe he might have been an orphan, someone who ran away in his teens, wandered across northern India, and slowly built a new identity. The police made enquiries to various royal families. However, they couldnt find anyone named Bhaskara Varma and his son Harihara Varma. Even the stones that drove the conspiracy turned out to be far less valuable than believed. Then assistant commissioner, now Kozhikode Rural SP K E Baiju, recalls how the team searched across the country for an accredited gem expert to authenticate Varmas collection. There was none. The stones were eventually deemed semi-precious, worth about `30 lakh together, nothing to justify the greedy fantasy that led to his death. They thought it was worth `300 crore, says Baiju. Varmas wife, Girija Menon, later moved the court, saying some stones had ties to the Padmanabhaswamy Temple. But since the investigation could never establish anything substantial, thecourt later dismissed it. She had lived with him for more than 15 years. Yet, even when the investigation reached its most crucial stages, his wife did not disclose his identity. I believe she knows. But we cannot force them into polygraph tests, adds Baiju. The case was later handed over to the crime branch. They found 3,647 gemstones, which included 65 pearls, 73 emeralds, 22 chrysoberyl stones, 4 rubies, 5 sapphires and 29 yellow sapphires. Several were brilliantly cut, some were unpolished, some were of doubtful quality, and 341 of them were later determined to be artificial. However, a geologist who examined them would testify that 3,306 stones were naturally formed precious stones, even if not all were high-value gems. The killers Jithesh, Ajeesh, Rakhil, and Ragesh were eventually convicted and handed life sentences. Joseph and lawyer Haridas were acquitted. The murder investigation was closed with clarity. However, the tale of Varma, his origins, his curated persona, and his secrets remain unresolved to date. The man left behind no verifiable past.

Congress dilemma in Upper House
NEW DELHI: Still reeling from its devastating performance in the Bihar Assembly elections, the Congress now faces a critical test of biannual Rajya Sabha elections, scheduled for early next year. With the partys Assembly seats shrinking in several key states and alliance leverage weakening, it may struggle to retain its influence in the Upper House. Elections for 75 seats in the Rajya Sabha are scheduled across April, June, and November 2026. While the BJP-led NDA is expected to make net gains, the elections may present an uphill task for the Congress with its weakened MLA base and rising internal dissent. The elections will see seats vacated across multiple states, including Bihar, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal, and Himachal Pradesh, among others. Although Congress may lose some seats, it is likely to retain as many as nine seatsthree from Karnataka, two from Telangana, one each from Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Haryana, and Himachal Pradesh. With some seasoned leaders set to exit, the elections are viewed as crucial by many. Some of the leaders who complete their term in the Upper House include Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge, veteran leaders Digvijaya Singh and Shakti Singh Gohil. Another leader who completes his term is senior advocate and Congress leader Abhishek Manu Singhvi from Telangana in April 2026. While Kharge, whose term from Karnataka ends on June 25, 2026, is expected to be renominated for another term, says party sources. Kharge is the Leader of Opposition in the Rajya Sabha (LoP) as well. While veteran leaders may push for renomination, arguing that experienced voices are needed in the Upper House, a section of leaders also root for fielding fresh faces to revive the partys prospects in Parliament and state units. Although the official candidate selection process is months away, the sources say that some names are already doing the rounds. While Congress is expected to hold ground in Karnataka and Telangana, it risks losing seats in states where its footprint has shrunk. The partys hopes also hinge on coalition arithmetic in Maharashtra, where shifting alliances and fragmented mandates could influence the outcome Meanwhile, regional allies within the INDIA bloc will also play a critical role in negotiating seat-sharing arrangements, making strategic alliances more crucial than ever. Maharashtra will see seven seats vacant in April 2026, with Sharad Pawar (NCP-SP), Priyanka Chaturvedi (Shiv Sena UBT), and Union Minister Ramdas Athawale completing their terms. Congress is entering these elections with limited leverage. The Bihar election has reduced its bargaining power among the allies, said a senior party leader. Success will depend not just on numbers, but on negotiation skills and candidate selection. On the other hand, the BJP-led NDA, buoyed by strong Assembly numbers in key states, is expected to leverage its dominance to gain additional Rajya Sabha seats, further squeezing Congress. Kharge, Singhvi among those completing terms this year Some of the leaders who complete their term in the Upper House include Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge, veteran leaders Digvijaya Singh and Shakti Singh Gohil. Another leader who completes his term is senior advocate and Congress leader Abhishek Manu Singhvi from Telangana in April 2026.

IAS officer from Karnataka's Tiptur brings about RWH revolution in Madhya Pradesh
NEW DELHI/BENGALURU: In a proud moment for Karnataka, IAS officer Dr Nagarjun B Gowda, a native of Tiptur in Tumakuru district and now CEO of Khandwa Zilla Panchayat in Madhya Pradesh, was honoured by President Droupadi Murmu at Vigyan Bhavan on Tuesday. Khandwa district was declared the Best Performing District in the country under the Union Jal Shakti ministrys rainwater harvesting programme, earning a cash award of Rs 2 crore. Dr Gowda and Khandwa Collector Rishav Gupta received the award together, for their model of water conservation that has turned a semi-arid region into a national example. Speaking to The New Indian Express after the ceremony, Dr Gowda traced the roots of his mission back to his childhood in drought-hit Tiptur. Khandwa resembles my hometown. I grew up watching my parents Bette Gowda and Prabha Gowda, both teachers but from a farming family, and neighbours struggle for water. As a boy, I would cycle long distances to fill a few buckets from borewells that barely yielded anything, he recalled. Sometimes I would yank that borewell lever for up to 10 minutes before it yielded a precious bucket of water, he added. Just north of Tumakuru is Chitradurga, among the most arid regions in Karnataka which has been drought-hit for decades. Those memories followed him through medical school in Mandya, where water scarcity and a recurring Cauvery crisis left a deep impact. So when the Jal Sanchay, Jan Bhagidari scheme was launched, it became personal, he said. Under the leadership of DC Rishav Gupta, and with Dr Gowda spearheading the grassroots effort, Khandwa mounted a district-wide movement. Officials, from the village accountant to the DC, went from village to village, urging residents, farmers, schools and government offices to adopt rainwater harvesting. The result: Over 1,29,000 installations, including 40,000 rooftop water harvesting systems, recharge pits, trenches and other structures, turned Khandwa into a rainwater-positive district, and set a benchmark for the country. Next year, we are targeting more such structures. This award belongs to the people of Khandwa, Dr Gowda said. Back home in Karnataka, the achievement resonates strongly: a son of the soil, shaped by drought, has shown India how to turn scarcity into abundance.
